“The hotel itself is good. It has a great location and the pool is amazing. The rooms are good in size; however, the staff is not very friendly.”

• Hotel is very upscale and beautiful, the pool area is nice.
• Our room was not serviced well by housekeeping and was in some disrepair.

“The location and ambience in the Hotel Viking are great. But beware of getting a room in the older part of the hotel. The housekeeping staff was remiss (did not empty trash daily, or provide clean drinking glasses, etc.) Some of the room features were very well worn or inoperative- wall outlets, lamps.”

• I thought the room was exceptional clean, and everything was in new condition.
• I honestly can not think of one.

“I was pleasantly surprised at how clean and fresh everything looked at this older Hotel. The hotel staff was very friendly, the room was comfortable and new, and it had all the amenities. The hotel was a 5 minute walk to the downtown area, with great restaurants, and shopping. I would recommend this hotel as a 3 star plus.”

• The parking situation, why should I have to pay to park at a hotel I am staying at.

“Hotel was ok for the price, very basic room. The only nice thing about the room was the bathroom which was really nice. But to me it felt like a kicked up version of a Holiday Inn.”

• Atmosphere, cleanliness and location.
• Was asked to pay an additional fee of $75.00 when requesting a room change.

“I loved the Hotel Viking. It is an historic hotel conveniently located in the heart of Newport Center. The rooms are beautiful and full of charm and were spotless. I was not thrilled with the set up of the bathroom (the toilet and shower were on one side of the room and the sink and closet were across the hall on the opposite side of the room). The food was excellent and the restaurant staff was exceptional going above and beyond the call of duty. The front desk staff was not overly friendly, but did manage to handle our check in smoothly. All in all I would have to say I would return to the Viking in the future!”

• This hotel has a very nice decor and was clean. The staff was friendly and the location was great.
• Noise level. The folks above sounded like they were running a marathon and we heard dogs barking as this place allows pets.

“Overall, our stay was very pleasant. However we would have had to complain to the hotel manager as the people above us made quite a bit of noise and we didn't like listening to dogs barking. Not sure why this place allows pets. Also, one small detail. Ours had a very small, old television. I believe we were in the older section of the hotel Viking. Would stay here again.”

“Hotel Viking has the Newport Rhode island history, charm and up and coming feeling that the area calls for. And deserves. Located off the main road in downtown Newport, there is decent parking and there are very able employees who give the visitor help when needed and space to come and go without pressure, and enjoy the atmosphere of this wonderful town.”

• Finding the lobby and our room was confusing. Wait for breakfast buffet was too long, we did not wait.

“We were in town for a family wedding and did not spend too much time at the hotel. It was very clean and comfortable and met our needs well. We did want to have the breakfast buffet but there was a 45 min wait to get in, much to long. Staff was friendly and the location was an easy walk to where we needed to go.”

• Loved the location and the relief of pulling in to park out of a line of cars.
• View out of the room was so-so, but that is true for mansions in downtown Newport.

“The Viking Hotel is located in the heart of downtown Newport, on Bellevue Avenue, which soon after the hotel becomes a major tourist driving route. You can walk everywhere from the Viking (if you like to walk, of course). Right down the hill is the wharf section full of restaurants and shops. Right along Bellevue close to the hotel are many finer shops and galleries. From the hotel, we did a loop to 1st beach (one end of the cliff walk) and the walked the cliff walk to Marine Avenue, winded our way balk through Salve Regina University and then hoofed it back on Bellevue, then down the hill to dinner. I love location in a hotel and inside; the Viking is great, with an indoor pool, and clean, well equipped rooms, at least for us. We were in the new wing. I have read some dud reviews of the Viking and I think that is all in the past now, all renovations are complete and the place is great.”

“This is a wonderfully located hotel, with easy access to the shopping dining and sight seeing areas. The additional cost of 20$ for parking was unanticipated, but the valet staff was very helpful, and it was easy to retrieve the car as needed.”

• Staff was courteous. The hotel was historic and charming.
• Could hear the person above us walking around. Took too long for valet to get car.

“Nice, pleasant and helpful staff. But for the size of the hotel, it seemed short on staff. Concierge was helpful when there was one there but they weren't there all the time and front desk was often too busy to help. Same goes for the valets and porters. If you aren't on the top floor, you will hear guests staying above you. All in all, great location and historic hotel but don't expect it to be too restful.”

• Room was worn looking discolored tiles cracked sink, no drain, water marks on the ceiling etc.

“I feel that they gave us an undecorated room. The rug had crumbs on it for 2 days and it took several complaints to have them clean it adequately. They charged us 20 dollars to park and we had to park in the employee parking lot or use valet service which would of course have cost us more.”

• Loved the location & the fact that it's within walking distance to downtown, dining, shopping & the beach. Loved the historic architecture & decor.
• Do not stay in an unrenovated part of the building! The renovated room was nice but small & no privacy bathroom - frosted glass door & no fan!

“Overall I would stay here again because it is a nice historic hotel in a good location with a lovely spa & indoor swimming pool. They first put us in an old, unrenovated wing far from the elevators, with peeling paint & cracks in the ceiling. Luckily when I asked they switched us to a renovated wing but which was only available for two of our three night stay - but then they never moved us out of the better room after all. So that was very good & we were very grateful for that. And though the renovated room was smaller, it was very finely decorated. It's unfortunate that the bathroom, fitted with partially clear & frosted glass door insert did not allow for much privacy, nor did it have a fan which I suppose is fine if one is not sharing the room but my companion & I would have preferred a more private & secure bathroom. The staffs were all very nice but we waited two hours for our luggage after checking in, which significantly cut into our plans for that day. Also, a housekeeper walked in on us at one point, despite the do not disturb sign on the doorknob. And one night the valets had all gone home by 11pm so we were left to fend for ourselves upon returning from dinner. Still, they were all otherwise very friendly, helpful & accommodating. One other thing I would add is that they charge & tag on gratuities for everything. For being in the hospitality industry it can seem a bit inhospitable. For example many hotels will leave complimentary chocolates in the room; here there was a basket full of goodies with an astronomically overcharged price list - $6 for a snickers bar! Although there were a few small things one could nitpick, overall it was a beautiful hotel, very comfortable & made for a very pleasantly memorable trip.”

• The outside view of the hotel is stunning.
• Walls are very thin and you could hear a lot of noise.

“Our room at the hotel Viking was in need of some updating. The television was very old and small and the bed was hard as a rock! The walls were very thin and we could hear our neighbors next to us and above us very clearly. The staff was unhelpful and often absent or seemed to be bothered by questions or providing assistance. This hotel is by no means 4-star, nor was the location convenient. I would not stay there again.”

“The Hotel Viking is a wonderful surprise in the heart of Newport. Even though it's a historic property it's a huge complex by NE standards and been completely updated and feels very modern. The rooms are generous and comfortable, the staff super friendly and helpful, convenient location right on Bellevue. You could easily spend all your time right at the Viking between the spa and the pool and the dining opportunities, the outdoor patios and rocking chairs on the front porch -it's a wonderful place! Can't wait to book another stay at the Viking!”

• Outdoor areas - courtyard, porch and pretty landscaping in very pretty and safe area.
• Impersonal front desk. Not very knowledgeable.

“It was a bit over-priced considering the accommodations. The front desk personnel seemed aloof and confused about reservations. No one offered to help with our luggage and the parking fee of $20.00 was a surprise since the lot was directly behind the hotel and part of the premises. Most people arrive by vehicle and charging extra to park the car was a cheap shot. Would not choose this location again.”

• The mattress was very comfortable.
• The concierge desk was always vacant.

“All that the Hotel Viking bills itself to be is not true. Our room was next to the parking lot and seemed like an "add-on" that is treated as the "wicked step-child". For example, the ceiling creaked with every step our second floor neighbors took, causing me to suspect that the space above us was more likely a dance floor. Also, the space was cramped. I tripped every time I went into the tiny bath area since the floor was raised here about an inch. The counter space of the room with the sink and mirror was minimal. Things that needed repair were simply painted over. There were cob webs on the wall. These things just made you feel like you were in a one star hotel that gave itself a new coat of paint and then renamed itself a 3 star. When we arrived the bell hop took our bags, set them aside, and then disappeared. The front desk clerks did not seem to be familiar with their own city. We asked how to get to the "Beechwood Mansion" as we had tickets to a show there that night. The clerk said she didn't know what that was, looked around the desk and a nearby closet and then pointed out our stupidity by informing us that in Newport, it is called the "Astor's Beechwood" and that is why she didn't know what we were talking about. She then told us it was about a mile down the road. We were not offered ideas on transportation or a map. We knew that Newport was a "walking town" so we figured that was what we were expected to do. Fifty minutes later, we reached our destination, which was between 2 and 3 miles down the road! We were dressed up, I in heels, so you can imagine how disappointed we were. Since the front desk was so ill-informed of their city, we tried the concierge desk on several occasions, but no one was ever there! I relied on my memory of maps I saw on the internet when researching our trip to guide us.”

“The biggest disappointment is we could not sleep because of the squeaking noise coming from the ceiling when tenants of the room above move. It seems that the hotel is too old. This problem wiped the good impression we got when we check in: very clean, decorative, and good pool area. But the most basic comfort in a hotel is to be able to sleep.”

“I love the Hotel Viking, but our room wasn't ready for the 3 p.m. check in. It was ready at 5:00 p.m. instead. We were given drink coupons while we waited, but still would have preferred our room to be ready. Also, when entered our room to find information in there that was supposed to go to another guest who was there with a conference group. Our room had windows that did not open, and the air conditioning was a broken. That is a problem seeing it was July.”

• Hotel Viking is beautiful & inviting with dreamily comfortable sleeping & fantastic location.
• Only two down spots being a lack of dressers in the room & $20 day parking.

“This hotel was truly lovely. From the lovely fragrances upon approach of the hotel. Flowers everywhere, to the decor - just wonderful. The room was incredibly comfortable although the toilet area being in a separate room from sink; took a little getting used to and sleep came very easy each night. Loved having the Dream Machine in the room. Was able to play a nice lullaby CD at bedtime to relax us all. Parking was $20/night, which was unexpected. They did have valet service. We did not utilize the hotel parking and were able to park on the street (very good neighborhood, no fear of car being broken into, even with DVD player being hooked up the entire week) and our walk to the hotel was always less than 2-3 minutes. So, no inconvenience at all to not use their lot.”
